RS
Rahul Srivastav Posted On : August 10th, 2022
Studied at Indian School of Business

ISB Hyderabad is better for candidates with more than 3 years of experience. It is better than IIM executive MBA and PGPX programs. Most students at ISB, have few years of industry experience. So, the peer learning opportunities are plenty. The placement opportunities offered are great. ISB placements in 2022 ended with an average CTC of INR 34.07 LPA.  

If you have less than 3 years of experience, IIM A, B, and C will offer better career outcomes.

What is the minimum marks required by an OBC NCL candidate in the JEE Mains to get admission in Nit Goa or any other low ranked NIT?

GJ
Gauri Jaiswal Posted On : August 28th, 2021
Student at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (2016-present)

There's a change in rules and the student's thinking manner every year and also the cut-off changes. So, these are the factors to attain admission in NIT Goa or any other lower-ranked NIT. Some new rules are imposed every year. 

To be safe and have admission in NIT Goa or any other lower-ranked NIT, the OBC students could attain a score of 150 out of 360. Through this score, a student from the OBC category can have admission to the average NIT. 

This is not the score for the general category students as they need to attain a higher score because of the reservation policies.

Can I get into XLRI with 47% in graduation, but pretty good scores in 10th & 12th? I also have 2 years of work experience. What if I manage to get 99.9+ in the XAT?

SP
Shivam Pandey Posted On : June 2nd, 2021

If your score is good in XAT, you will get the call. It is also good because the marks have a good amount of weightage in the final selection.

Most probably, you will be questioned if you have low grades in any of the examinations and all you need to do is, just satisfy the interviewers and prove to them that you are a good candidate and this would be enough to get you through.

If you have a score anywhere above 99.9 Percentile, you will get a call from XAT. You are much more than your mark sheets and XLRI values such things which are beyond scores.

What are KMC manipal mbbs degree benefits over degree from state govt universities?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 28th, 2023

Government colleges offer excellent patient loads with minimal fees. Everything including hospital equipment, the salary of professors, and all the other expenses are covered by the government. In the case of private hospitals, all such expenses are paid by the students so the fees are high. KMC Manipal enjoys a good reputation because of the clinical exposure and quality of education it offers. In fact, its patient exposure is comparable to that of Government colleges. Being associated with 3 Government hospitals gives you a spectrum of cases and a huge workload for interns and PGs. Here are a few perks of choosing KMC over Government colleges

  • KMC gives you an edge over USMLE
  • It has an excellent research culture as it helps you to get into ICMR, a short-term studentship. In case you are presenting a paper they even sponsor you to go to a conference.
  • The extracurricular culture is also great here. It organized Utsav, its intercollegiate fest, and also allowed students to attend other fests like PULSE (AIIMS), Spandan (JIPMER), etc.

Eventually, the decision depends on your financial status.

How do you score 80% plus marks in NSIT/DTU (formerly DCE) ? WHAT is the secret behind the diligent life long toppers?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : August 21st, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

One of my friends faced a lot of issues in the initial years at NSUT. His aggregate for the first 2 years was 50%. He then decided to work hard and made a new strategy. By the end of 4 years, his aggregate increased to 80%. Currently, he is pursuing MS in computer science at the University of Maryland, College Park, USA. Initially, he was distracted by the freedom of college life and the dilemma of choosing MS vs MBA. 

Firstly, you need to focus on your studies and target a high score. Stop paying heed to people who say college life is all about fun. College is about realizing a dream and setting plans to achieve them. So, give up on distractions and start working hard to get good grades. He realized that scoring 80+ in college is possible for everyone but because of the ongoing activities and distractions, it becomes almost impossible.

In simple words, all you need is to find the passion within you that will drive you to perform at your level best. Find a good company that motivates you instead of mocking you.

Does DTU CSE have 100% placement?

SM
Sreejita Mukharjee Posted On : July 4th, 2023
B.Tech from Delhi Technological University (2021)

The number of recruiters varies every year and affects the placement percentage of all the branches of DTU. Approximately the placement percentage of DTU CSE varies from 88 % - 93%. Even colleges better than DTU find it difficult to maintain a 100% record. Students who have poor grades or backlogs usually get rejected while many top graders opt for higher studies generally in foreign universities.

Here are DTU branch-wise placements

What should I do to clear the GD/PI of XLRI Jamshedpur for HR? Assuming that I have plenty of time to prepare, what should be my strategy?

IC
Indrani Chatterjee Posted On : April 18th, 2023
PGDM from Xavier School of Management (2018)

Group Discussion (GD) will be different from a regular topic-based GD, as it will be ranked-based. In this type of GD, a list of activities will be given to the group, and the members will have to come to an agreement about the importance of each activity. This type of GD does not require specific knowledge on any topic but will require strong communication skills to participate effectively.

Since everyone in the group will have to chime in to speak, there is a high probability that the discussion could become chaotic and disorganized. This should not allow you as a candidate to give up on contributing to the discussion as this will negatively affect the panel’s perception of you. Keep trying to engage with the discussion in a polite manner.

Interview -  The type of questions that can be expected in the PI can be about why the candidate is interested in HR, why they want to do an MBA, and why they want to do it in XLRI. You can also be asked about your educational background and work experience, as well as about how you'd react to hypothetical situations. The key to handling this kind of probing is to remain calm, keep a smile on your face, and not let a single bad answer affect the entire interview.
